*** Artistic statement unWorded is born from a profound love for typography. Letters not only convey meaning but can also bring a strong sense of space. We asked ourselves if we could build an entire world out of simple letters? How would it look like? What feeling would we get, if we were to immerse ourselves in such an universe?! With that came along the desire to dive into a writer's head and his thoughts, to see how memories form themselves to bubble up to the conscient mind. We finally chose a very simple but engaging gameplay experience, assembling letters to create objects, each one triggering an important memory of the author. One key aspect for us was the intimacy the player would experience with the writer, actively participating in his introspection.
We really wanted to tell a story about feelings and thoughts through unWorded. The game deals with the subject of grief, it is something we all have to go through but that not easy to discuss. The player would have to live each phase of grief along with the author: shock and denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. The unWorded story is about a children's book writer, who was just hospitalized after a serious accident. As his wife at his bedside reads to him fairy tales of his own creations, you dive into his mind, sharing his last thoughts as he reminisces about his life and past works, standing with him at the death's door!

Creative yet short artistic puzzle game about building shapes with letters in various sizes, told through 5 self-contained story books with an overarching plot to tie it up. While the story from each book's does have some kind of continuity, their existence felt meaningless at times / only existed for gameplay, since the main story is told from the other text after each puzzle (and the chapter naming theme may spoil things). Overall recommended, but beware of it doesn't have much replayability.

Unique, poignant, thought-provoking. Short game but still sends a powerful message. All the people complaint about it being a waste of time and the puzzles not looking like what they're supposed to represent have no imagination and are mad they couldn't solve them. 100% recommend this

A heartbreaking game that will touch your soul.
★☆☆☆☆ColdPotato· Jul 21, 2019
Absolutely ridiculous game. Puzzles make no sense at are and are completely counterintuitive. "Hints" give no indication of where to place things. On the rare occasion you even know what you're supposed to make, it'll not even look remotely like what it should, and sometimes won't pass you due to being a couple pixels off. Both the short stories and overarching ones could have been written by a 6th grader. One of the worst games I've ever paid for, or even played on the app store.
★★☆☆☆Sora Udagawa· Jan 25, 2019
The writing in general is too simple to work in the game's favor. For instance, fables are a really bad choice when trying to express complex feelings, as they are simplistic by nature. Same thing with the characters, which don't get to actually care about. The good parts of the game are the music and graphics, which is sad when most of the work should have been put into perfecting the story. In a nutshell, it's an artsy story based game with a bad narrative. Not worth playing if you ask me.

Interesting gameplay idea hindered by awful puzzle design and pretentious plot
